TAYO is a modern heirloom embroidery studio inspired by connection.

Kia ora and kumusta! At the heart of TAYO is a deep love for celebrating and honouring the moments that bring us together.

'Tayo' means 'we' or 'us' in Tagalog, and that feeling of togetherness sits at the heart of everything I make. Shared stories. Shared lives. The threads that connect us across time, places, and people.

From my Christchurch studio, I create embroidered keepsakes and small batch goods designed to hold memories close, from big milestones to the everyday moments worth remembering.

TAYO is also a heartfelt tribute to my late grandmothers, Lola Angie and Lola Ops, both incredibly talented seamstresses. Their love for making beautiful things continues to inspire me every day.

Thank you for entrusting me with your favourite memories, moments, and milestones.

With love,
Rebekah — TAYO
